Answer 2

Oil is produced by sebaceous glands. These glands are bigger and more active in the nose region than any other areas of the face. This is why the nose tends to be a trouble area. The pores in this area are also larger to accommodate the large flow of oil produced. Other areas on the body where sebaceous glands are most heavily concentrated are the neck, chest, and back.

The amount of oil that an individual generates is determined by genetics. It is affected by hormones and what is called an "end organ response." The oil gland is considered the end organ because it is this gland that is acted upon by hormones. Many people have the same level of hormones, but make different amounts of oil because their oil glands respond differently. During adolescence, a surge in the level of hormones known as androgens enlarge and stimulate the sebaceous glands, causing them to produce more sebum.

While this stimulation is not directly responsible for acne, the extra sebum for which they're responsible produces more fatty acids when a comedo plug closes off a pore opening. The additional fatty acids increase the amount of inflammation, and more severe acne occurs. Despite all the trouble that sebum causes, it is very important to the maintenance of the skin. When the system is working properly, sebum performs the important job of lubricating your skin. Sebum also carries with it dead skin cells shedding from your hair follicle walls. For someone with oily skin, the best thing to do is to take measures to keep pores from getting clogged and forming acne lesions. The best way to do this is with a clay mask. I love the SkinCeuticals one as it contains 5% alpha hydroxy acid to help remove build up.
